Bet you didn’t learn about this one in school.
Hivamat is an acronym for Histological Variable Manual Technique. A new FDA cleared device that has been extremely successful in the sports medicine market is now finding its way into the world of physical therapy. The device creates an action of pulsating low-frequency, two-phase alternating electrostatic field generated between the therapist’s hands and patient’s tissue. The movement of one of the electrodes causes a moving of electrically neutral molecules in exposed tissues. The resulting dipoles rotate in accordance with changes in field polarity. This is accompanied by alternating elevations and depressions of corresponding tissue and development of intensive sympathetic vibration.
Jeff Worrell speaks to the President of the company responsible for introducing the technology to the United States. Listen to William Griffith of PhysioMed North America explain the benefits of Hivamat Therapy in easy to understand language.

I have talked with the NA rep and with a client in Toronto who is going to have Tx in Ontario. The instrument sounds promising and I would appreciate the research articles .
